So, where does one get his IQ measured... any online tests?

I suspect my IQ must be above average, as I CAN use a computer. Unlike 98% of people in this company who ask me for help...

129 when I tried getting into the gifted program at my middle school. I haven't taken one since, and really don't care.

Lol, how come almost everyone who gives an answer has an IQ not even close to average?

142, administered when I was in grade school. My parents turned down my entering gifted classes for reasons I'm still not quite sure of.

What's funny is that upon graduating grade six I asked to look into entering gifted classes and they basically said I had probably gotten too stupid in the time in between to cut it in those classes. :confused:

They all took online tests which are not even close to actual. IQ tests are bogus anyway. They used to be useful, but now they are becoming more PC, thus invalid.

I'd also say the the intelligence of this board ranks above average.

This is true, but it also makes sense that those on a tech board would have higher-than average intelligence. I was tested in grade school and high school. These online tests are bullcrap. Most don't even include reaction time as part of the score.
